Orangery roof lanterns in County Armagh: questions
Can I add a lantern to my existing orangery roof?
If the roof has a suitable opening and upstand, yes. If not, the roof needs structural alteration first, which is a job for a builder with an engineer's input.
What is the difference between an orangery and a conservatory?
A conservatory has a mostly glazed roof; an orangery has a mostly solid roof with a lantern in the middle and usually more solid wall. Orangeries are easier to keep comfortable year round.
Do orangery lanterns come with cresting?
They can. Cresting and finials are options on traditional ranges.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in County Armagh?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district council before ordering.
